Ethical Hacking Cohort V3
60 days · AppSec + Security Engineer track · 5 live sessions per week
Why this cohort is different.
Live instructor Q&A
Sessions run 5 days a week. Ask questions in real time; get war stories from that week's bug bounty work.
Small batch, high touch
Capped at 50 seats. Jagdeep reviews your VDR submissions individually and flags what triagers would.
Real programs, real bounties
Not sandbox targets. You'll practice on real bug bounty scopes with real disclosure timelines.
Verifiable certificate
Public QR-verify page for every completion. Recruiter-friendly, LinkedIn-linkable.
Skills you'll walk away with.
Not a syllabus — the practical skill set. What you can put on a résumé the week after the cohort ends.
